‘Indian Matchmaking’ from Netflix has gained tremendous popularity and not only the show but the very famous and real-life matchmaker ‘Sima from Mumbai’ is what everyone has been talking about. Sima Taparia is a marriage broker who is engaged by families from India and across Atlantic to find suitable matches for their kids.
Indian Matchmaking is a reality show created by Oscar-nominated director Smriti Mundhra, an Indian-American filmmaker. The series shows how arranged marriages have been taking place for Indian couples and how Sima makes sure that the couple is compatible. The series has been subject to a lot of criticism as it shows that in arranged marriages parents and prospective couples have peculiar choices and demands based on caste, height, skin colour, education and ambitions. For example, Akshay’s mother specifically asks Sima to find her a girl above 5’3.
The show features all kinds of couples and each of their stories is very different. We love how Sima Taparia from Mumbai tackles each of them and gives her 100% in finding a suitable match for all.
